After graduating from law school in San Diego, Ms. Edwards was hired by Collin County DA's office to prosecute a variety of cases. Her main case work involved DWI cases, both blood and total refusals. Ms. Edwards determined her skills were better used in representing people as they required the state to meet the burden of proof in any case it wished to prosecute. She has maintained a successful solo office fighting cases ranging from misdemeanors to first degree felonies to not guilty verdicts, including on DWI cases, security fraud, theft, assault strangulation, and intent to deliver controlled substances.

Shannon and her staff have been great at helping me with any questions or concerns I have had. They have always returned any phone calls I have had in a timely matter and put my mind to ease on several occasions. I would highly recommend her to anyone with legal issues needing a attorney.
